Summaries
With the help of a magic ticket, a young movie fan is transported into the fictional world of his favorite action movie character.
Young Danny Madigan is a huge fan of Jack Slater, a larger-than-life action hero played by Arnold Schwarzenegger. When his best friend, Nick the projectionist, gives him a magic ticket to the newest Jack Slater movie, Danny is transported into Slater's world, his number one hero where the good guys always win. It's a dream come true for Danny, but things take a turn for the worse when one of Slater's enemies, Benedict the hit man, gets ahold of the ticket and ends up in Danny's world. Slater and Danny must join forces and travel back and stop him at all costs before it'll be the end of Jack Slater.
Addicted to the fast, high-octane world of the fictional, no-nonsense Los Angeles cop, Jack Slater, portrayed by his favourite idol, Arnold Schwarzenegger, the neglected eleven-year-old film fan, Danny Madigan, can't wait to see a special preview of Slater's latest movie. With the help of his projectionist friend, Nick, and Harry Houdini's magical golden ticket, young Danny will soon become part of the story, living and breathing inside a glossy celluloid world filled with high-speed car chases; magnificent explosions; surreally good-looking women; ruthless Sicilian mobsters, and murderous henchmen. However, when a small dose of reality creeps in the fantasy realm, and vice versa, the invincible Jack Slater is in for a big surprise, up against his equally indestructible arch-enemies, in a world he barely recognises. Will the last action hero live up to his reputation?
Danny Madigan knows all of the first three Jack Slater movies in and out. The fourth one is just about to be released too, and with a magical ticket, Danny really gets to know that movie in and out too, literally speaking. During one of the action climaxes, Danny is transported into the movie, into a world following other rules than the real one. Benedict, one of the evil guys, gets hold of the ticket and escapes out to the real world, a world where evil guys can actually win. Danny and Jack follow him back to the real world to get back the ticket and stop Benedict.
